'Project Runway's' New Catwalk Page 1 of 3 'Project Runway's' new catwalk Page 1 of 3 Tuesday, August 18, 2009 'Project Runway's' new catwalk Hit reality show moves over to Lifetime, L.A. for its sixth season Mekeisha Madden Toby / Detroit News Television Writer For far too long, Lifetime has been viewed as the victimized women's network. That should change Thursday when Lifetime fights back with its biggest acquisition ever -- "Project Runway" -- which will strut out with a highly buzzed-about sixth season packed with location and production changes. Lifetime bought the rights more than a year ago, but NBC, which owns Bravo, fought the purchase in court until a resolution was reached this past spring. While some fans are grumbling about the network switch, critics are hailing it as a long-overdue move. "I think it's a perfect fit," says Elayne Rapping, a pop culture expert, author and professor who teaches television and society courses at the University at Buffalo-SUNY. "Lifetime is known as a women's channel -- Bravo still seems arty. Women watch these kinds of shows, and Lifetime has a brand name connotation, especially for older women who have watched Lifetime for years." A new basic-cable home isn't the only change of note. The sixth season will take place in Los Angeles instead of New York for the first time in the show's history, a move made to accommodate the familial needs of co-host and supermodel Heidi Klum. Like the switch from Bravo to Lifetime, fans have bemoaned the relocation in countless blogs all over the Internet. On the Diary of a Mad Fashionista blog, for instance, the site's host called Los Angeles "the land of the lost." Ever the optimist, "Project Runway" mentor and co-host Tim Gunn is making the move work. Although he had reservations initially, over time Gunn has tried to allay fears by presenting La-La Land as a logical choice because of the entertainment-driven city's red-carpet and TV and film costuming culture. http://www.printthis.clickability.com/pt/cpt?action=cpt&title=%27Project+Runway%27s... 8/18/2009 'Project Runway's' new catwalk Page 2 of 3 In an effort to retain loyal fans and attract new ones, too, Lifetime is celebrating the premiere of "Project Runway" with four hours of programming dedicated to the brand. The night will begin with a two-hour special called "Project Runway: All-Star Challenge," a TV event that will pit eight former fan favorites against one another for a $100,000 cash prize and bragging rights. The list of names includes costumer and human-hair lover Chris March from season four. The second-chance special will be followed by the premiere of "Project Runway: Season Six" and that will be followed by a brand-new spinoff called "Models of the Runway." The latter will give the perspectives of the women who wear the show's fashions on the catwalk. Lifetime has promised not to tamper with any of the elements that have made "Project Runway" a 4-million viewer success. While the production company has changed -- the folks at Magical Elves have been replaced by Bunim-Murray of "The Real World" fame -- both the cable network and the new producers have made a vow of continuity. "Lifetime has to do all of these things and more to achieve great success," says Mike Bernacchi, a marketing professor at the University of Detroit Mercy. "And it has to be a great success. Anything less than a great success would make the whole move a waste." 6 changes to season six 1. "Project Runway" has moved from New York to Los Angeles (but just for one season; it will return to New York next year). 2. The show has switched networks and is no longer on Bravo but Lifetime. 3. The team putting the show out has changed from the Magical Elves production company to Bunim-Murray, the folks who brought us "The Real World." Can you say hot tub? 4. A new spinoff called "Models of the Runway" will air immediately after "Project Runway" at 11 p.m. It gives the perspective of the women who wear the fashions. 5. The nucleus will no longer be New York's Parsons but L.A's Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising. 6. With the show's new Los Angeles location, the number of A-list celebrity guest judges has increased. Expect appearances from the likes of Lindsay Lohan, Christina Aguilera and Eva Longoria Parker.

  • Advanced Sculpture Students “De-Disneyfy” Fairy Tales Through Couture Costume Millinery
    Advanced Sculpture Students “De-Disneyfy” Fairy Tales through Couture Costume Millinery Liz Terlecki Introduction I am often aghast when students exhibit baffled looks at the mention of what I consider to be Blockbuster movies like Edward Scissorhands or Ghostbusters. Typically, the movies we all assume that everyone has seen are films that conjure only a few raised student hands verifying a one-time screening, or at least familiarity, with the movie. However, it rarely fails that Disney movies are those with which most students are not only familiar, but also well versed. This past year, Disney’s hit Frozen has all but taken over the world of animated films (and all merchandise born thereto) and now seems to dominate pop culture categories of “most watched” and “most referenced.” The fact that my students are teenagers in high school is certainly no exception to the rule, especially since cartoons like Adventure Time, Spongebob Squarepants, and even My Little Pony have begun to invade older age groups. Unfortunately, just as my students are mystified by references to the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, so are they to the real stories that inspired many Disney classics. Just when I begin thinking that I do not have much in common with this generation of teenagers, I find myself admitting that prior to writing this unit, I, too, was unfamiliar with many of the real fairy tales that influence Disney films. I was surprised by the unexpected components of death and even gore—elements with which my students are all too familiar (and attracted to) considering the recent rising popularity of zombie and vampire television shows and teenagers’ inevitable natural draw to cheesy horror flicks.

  • REPRESENTATION of LATINAS1 AS MAIDS on DEVIOUS MAIDS (2013) Fitria Afrianty Sudirman
    42 Paradigma, Jurnal Kajian Budaya Representation of Latinas as Maids on Devious Maids, Fitria Afrianty Sudirman 43 REPRESENTATION OF LATINAS1 AS MAIDS ON DEVIOUS MAIDS (2013) Fitria Afrianty Sudirman Abstract This article aims to analyze the representation of Latinas as maids by examining the first season of US television drama comedy, Devious Maids. The show has been a controversy inside and outside Latina community since it presents the lives of five Latinas working as maids in Beverly Hills that appears to reinforce the negative stereotypes of Latinas. However, a close reading on scenes by using character analysis on two Latina characters shows that the characters break stereotypes in various ways. The show gives visibility to the Latinas by putting them as main characters and portraying them as progressive and independent women who also refuse the notion of white supremacy. Keywords Latina, stereotypes, television, Devious Maids. INTRODUCTION Latin Americans have grown to be the largest minority group in the United States (US). According to the 2010 US Census, those identifying themselves as Hispanic/Latino Americans increased by 43% from the 2000 US Census, comprising 16% of the U.S total population. The bureau even expected that by 2050, the Hispanic/Latino population in the U.S. will be 132.8 million or 30% of the total population, which means one out of three Americans is a Hispanic/Latino. However, the increasing number of Latin Americans does not seem to go along with the portrayal of them in the US television. Research shows that they remain significantly under-represented on TV, only 1%-3% of the primetime TV population (Mastro-Morawitz, 2005).

The camera continues up, now we realize she’s lying on the floor of a moving limo with 5 “smoking hot” girls in evening gowns getting drunk on champagne. The sound of the world fades in: chattering girls, champagne glasses clinking. Rachel shouts up from the floor while staying out of view of the CAMERA MAN and SOUND GUY, who are smashed in the corner: RACHEL OK! You guys wanna know who he is?
